Video: Danica Patrick’s Scary Crash at Daytona Qualifier

Danica Patrick predictably managed to steal the spotlight at Daytona International Speedway on Thursday, only she did it in the scariest way possible.

During the qualifier, auto racing’s biggest star and most recognizable face wound up hitting the inside wall on the backstretch. The accident was just as bad as it looked, and it damaged her car so much so that she’ll now be forced to use a backup in Sunday’s Daytona 500.

Thankfully, though, while the car suffered serious harm, the driver behind the wheel was OK.

Check out the scary crash in the video below:
